What Conscience Is (And Isn't) And How to Form It: In this episode, we hear the story of Dr. Matthew Levering, internationally renowned Catholic theologian, author or editor of over 30 books, and convert from Quakerism. We discuss common misunderstandings of “conscience” and what it means to “follow your conscience.” We also consider the role of a theologian, and Dr. Levering’s work to advance the genuine teachings of the Second Vatican Council.
